Center of Hope

MISSION: Center of Hope is committed to Christ-centered recovery with services that reach the entire community with effective programs that not only combat addiction, but are preventative.

Center of Hope is committed not only to reach out and help bring restoration in the lives of those bound in addiction, but to the families and community as well.

Mission Statement - Rebuilding lives, and restoring hope through Christ-centered recovery. "Praise be the the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3,4

ABOUT CENTER OF HOPE: Everyday desperate and hurting men and women contact Center of Hope Recovery Center seeking help, looking for an opportunity for renewed hope. In addition to providing immediate help for the basic needs of life, food, clothing and shelter, we offer long term, Christ-centered addiction recovery. Providing individuals the opportunity for permanently transformed lives.

Drug and alcohol addiction crosses all economic, social, and racial boundaries. The men and women caught in its devastating grips are just like you and me, with families and children, hopes and dreams just like ours. At some point life began to spin out of control for them and they found themselves at rock bottom. Today, they need the change to change. They need hope.

VISION: Their vision is to tear down the strong holds of addiction permanently transforming lives. Our purpose is to provide the place, love, example, and instruction to facilitate deliverance through the Word of God.

SUPPORT: Center of hope is on the front lines battling the most dreaded form of poverty - poverty of the spirit. In Luke 4:18 Jesus said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, anointing me to preach the Gospel to the poor." To share the Good News with those poor in spirit and to give hope to those that think there is no hope in their goal. They are sharing this Good News, this hope with many daily and need our support to enable them to continue providing Christ-centered recovery to the many individuals who seek their help.

Center of Hope relies on the support of the community in three ways. First, they ask us to pray for them continually. Secondly, they ask that we will prayerfully consider giving financially on a regular basis. Finally, Center of Hope has opened a thrift store to serve the community, provide job skills training for their residents, and to provide funds for the ministry. When we patronize the thrift store, the proceeds benefit the men and women in Center of Hope's Recovery Program and give them the opportunity to learn valuable job skills.

At their thrift store, they offer merchandises at bargain prices and they welcome all donations. They accept drop-offs and will also schedule pick-ups for all your clothing, furniture, appliances, vehicles, etc. A tax-deductible receipt will be given for all donations.
